WELLINGTON’S Anthony Wright took the premier trophy at the 2016 Bridge Tyres and Wheel Point S Wiscombe Park Hillclimb Championship awards night at Wiscombe House.

More than 100 drivers and enthusiasts attended the presentation night with Wright also receiving a cheque for £300.

The former circuit racer has consistently been in the race for the championship in recent years but has always been beaten to the finishing post.

But this year the operation manager amassed a points total of 90.08 to defeat second placed and reigning champion Ian Ingleheart who was two points in arrears of the new champion.
